How Should Sandals Fit? A Shopping Guide For You

With the coming of summer, sandals have become an indispensable part of our daily wear. Choosing a pair of sandals that fit our feet can not only keep us cool and comfortable in hot weather, but also effectively protect our foot health. So, how can we choose a pair of sandals that really fit our feet? WDC Reps will give you a detailed introduction.

Understand your foot type

To find sandals that fit your feet, you must first understand your foot type. Different foot types require different types of support and comfort. The following are several common foot type classifications and their characteristics:

Foot type classification

Normal foot

Characteristics: The arch is moderate, and the pressure on the sole of the foot is evenly distributed when standing, neither biased towards the heel nor the toes.

Selection: Most sandals are suitable for this foot type, but be careful to choose shoes with proper support and cushioning.

High arch foot

Characteristics: The arch is high, and the pressure is mainly concentrated on the heel and toes when standing, and the arch part has less contact with the ground.

Selection: It is suitable to choose sandals with good arch support and cushioning to disperse the pressure on the sole of the foot and provide better comfort.

Flat feet

Characteristics: Low or no arch, the entire sole of the foot almost completely touches the ground when standing.

Selection:  It is suitable to choose sandals with good arch support and stability to prevent excessive fatigue and discomfort of the sole of the foot.

How to measure and identify your foot type

Methods for measuring foot type

Wet footprint test

Wet your feet and stand on a piece of paper, keep standing for a few seconds and then move away. Observe the shape of the footprint:

• Normal foot: There is a clear depression in the arch part.
• High arch foot: The depression in the arch part is larger, and only the toes and heels have obvious marks.
• Flat feet: The entire sole of the foot is almost completely printed on the paper, and the depression in the arch part is small or not.

Arch test

Observe your foot shape while standing, or ask a professional podiatrist to perform a foot examination to determine your arch height and foot shape characteristics.

Choose the right type of sandals according to your foot type

• Normal foot: Choose sandals with basic support and cushioning functions, most styles are suitable.
• High arched feet: Choose sandals with good arch support and sufficient cushioning on the soles to disperse the pressure on the soles of the feet and reduce the burden on the heels and toes.
• Flat feet: Choose sandals with obvious arch support and good stability, and avoid choosing sandals that are too flat or lack support to prevent foot fatigue and discomfort.

Determine the right size

Choosing the right sandal size is a key step to ensure comfort and avoid foot problems. Here are some aspects of determining the right sandal size:

Measure foot length and width

Prepare materials: a piece of white paper, a pen and a ruler.

Steps:

• 1. Stand upright with your feet on the white paper, making sure your weight is evenly distributed on both feet.
• 2. Use a pen to draw the shape of your foot along the outline of your foot, making sure the pen is perpendicular to the paper and not tilted. Use a pen to mark the widest part of your foot.
• 3. Use a ruler to measure the distance from the heel to the longest toe, which is your foot length. Use a ruler to measure the distance between the marks on both sides, which is your foot width.

Compare the size chart provided by the merchant

Sizing standards vary from country to country, such as the size marking methods in Europe, America, Asia, etc. Shoe sizes may vary from brand to brand, and even different styles of the same brand may vary. It is recommended to refer to the size chart provided by the brand to understand the specific length and width dimensions and compare them with your measurements.

Basic principles for size selection

Leave room for length

The size of the sandal should be slightly larger than the actual foot length by 0.5-1 cm to ensure the comfort of the foot during walking and exercise. In particular, the toes should have enough room to move to avoid squeezing and friction.

Moderate width

The width of the sandal should match the width of the foot to ensure that the foot is not squeezed, but it should not be too loose to avoid sliding when walking.

The influence of the season

The feet may be slightly swollen in summer. This should be considered when choosing sandals, and a slightly larger size should be selected appropriately.

Consider the use scenario

Choose different sizes according to the use scenario, such as daily wear, sports or outdoor activities, etc. Different scenarios may require different comfort and support.

The best time to try on the sandals

It is recommended to try on the sandals in the afternoon or evening, when the feet are slightly swollen, which is closer to the actual state of the day, and it helps to choose a more suitable size.
